Cloud Pub/Sub is a fully-managed real-time messaging service that allows you to send and receive messages between independent applications.
-
Set up authentication with a service account so you can access the API from your local workstation.
-
Install the client library:
npm install --save @google-cloud/pubsub
-
Try an example:
// Imports the Google Cloud client library
const {PubSub} = require('@google-cloud/pubsub');
// Your Google Cloud Platform project ID
const projectId = 'YOUR_PROJECT_ID';
// Instantiates a client
const pubsubClient = new PubSub({
projectId: projectId,
});
// The name for the new topic
const topicName = 'my-new-topic';
// Creates the new topic
pubsubClient
.createTopic(topicName)
.then(results => {
const topic = results[0];
console.log(`Topic ${topic.name} created.`);
})
.catch(err => {
console.error('ERROR:', err);
});

This library follows Semantic Versioning.
This library is considered to be in beta. This means it is expected to be mostly stable while we work toward a general availability release; however, complete stability is not guaranteed. We will address issues and requests against beta libraries with a high priority.
